We suspect we are not retrieving quite the seismograms we intend and have identified a potential source of this error.

=== Velocity source insertion ===
 +
 
 +
We determined that the offset is due to the way the AWP staggered grid is set up.  The normal stresses are in the center of the grid cell, but the X velocity is in the center of the side, in the +x direction.  So inserting a source at location A and recording velocities at location B is actually recording velocities at B+.5, and doing the reverse tests means velocities are measured at A+.5.  So in the first test, the distance traveled is (B+.5)-A = (B-A)+.5, and in the second it's B-(A+.5) = (B-A)-.5, a difference of 1 grid point.  If the force is inserted by modifying velocities,
 +
 
 +
To illustrate this, the plots below show the same test with a stress insertion and a velocity insertion.  Both points have the same Y and Z indices (depth=1km), only the X is varied.

Since the above results looked good, we tried moving one of the points to the surface:

The differences in the late arrivals are ~3%.
 +
 
 +
We repeated these velocity insertion tests for the 4, 12, and 14-layer models, with one point at the surface and one point at depth.

Kim made some updates to the symmetries in the kernel.  I reran the 14-layer tests with the new kernel.

We recomputed results using 100m and 33m spacing, and compared them to the FK results for the 14-layer model.
 +
We chose the AWP points (432, 365, 1) and (317, 453, 52) in the 100m run and (1294, 1093, 1) and (948, 1362, 154) in the 33m run.

=== GoF for multiple realizations ===
 +
 
 +
For clarity, here are the steps involved in producing the below plots.
 +
 
 +
<ol>
 +
  <li>Generate the 10 realizations by using a random number generator to generate 9 numbers, and create copies of the src file which is used in the BBP validation event, changing only the seed.</li>
 +
  <li>Produce BBP results for each of the 10 sites x 10 realizations.  Note that all must be run individually so reproducibility with the random seed isn't an issue.
 +
    <ol style="list-style-type:lower-alpha">
 +
      <li>Run the BBP workflow generator for 1 site and 1 realization to generate an XML file.  This workflow includes SRF generation and site response.</li>
 +
      <li>Using the XML file, replace the path to the station name and the path to the src file.</li>
 +
      <li>Create batch submission scripts which call all 100 BBP workflows.</li>
 +
    </ol>
 +
  </li>
 +
  <li>Create validation events for each realization.
 +
    <ol style="list-style-type:lower-alpha">
 +
      <li>Copy over the Northridge validation event data that ships with the BBP.</li>
 +
      <li>Update the data.  This includes changing the event name, updating the src file, updating the stl file to filter at the correct frequencies, and stage in the output acceleration data from the BBP runs for the validation event to use as an 'observation'.</li>
 +
    </ol>
 +
  </li>
 +
  <li>Produce CyberShake results for each of the 10 sites.
 +
    <ol style="list-style-type:lower-alpha">
 +
      <li>Create a new source in the ERF, in which each realization is a separate rupture of that source.</li>
 +
      <li>Extract the rupture geometry from one of the realizations, to obtain the list of points the SGTs should be saved for.</li>
 +
      <li>Generate a CyberShake volume oriented N/S/E/W which contains the Northridge rupture surface, the site of interest, is 64 km deep, and uses 30 km of padding.</li>
 +
      <li>Generate a velocity mesh using the 24-layer model provided by Rob, which is a post-processed version of the LA Basin 14-layer model included with the BBP.</li>
 +
      <li>Run the original version of the AWP code ('AWP-CS'), using velocity insertion of a source low-pass filtered at 2 Hz, for 30 seconds (unless it's a distance site, in which case we run longer)</li>
 +
      <li>Run the post-processing code for the 10 realizations.</li>
 +
      <li>Run the broadband steps (high-frequency synthesis, low-frequency site response, and merge) for each of the 10 realizations.</li>
 +
    </ol>
 +
  </li>
 +
  <li>Perform goodness-of-fit, using CyberShake as the simulation and BBP as the reference.
 +
    <ol style="list-style-type:lower-alpha">
 +
      <li>For each realization:
 +
        <ol>
 +
          <li>Create a temporary directory for the CyberShake results.</li>
 +
          <li>Stage in the CyberShake results for all 10 sites</li>
 +
          <li>Use BBP helper scripts to create a simulation ID and stage the CyberShake results to that directory.</li>
 +
          <li>Run the BBP to generate an XML file which will perform GoF (details at [[New_BBP_Validation_Package]])</li>
 +
          <li>Run using the XML file to generate the GoF comparisons and plots.</li>

We modified the grid spacing from 100m to 33.333m to see what impact it has on the BBP/CS comparisons.  To simplify the comparisons, results here are for 1 Northridge realization, realization 6.

=== Expanded buffer layer tests ===
 +
 
 +
When calculating the size of the CyberShake volume, we construct a volume large enough to contain the site and all the fault surfaces, then pad it on all sides by 30 km.  We modified the buffer zone to be larger, 50 km.
 +
 
 +

|}
 +
 
 +
We then performed additional tests, deepening the volume to 80 km, increasing the padding to 60 km, and also increasing the number of grid points in the boundary condition sponge zone from 50 to 80.  Below are comparisons with the original results, including GoF for site SBG.

This page documents our initial CyberShake Broadband Platform verification work, running the BBP validation events through CyberShake.

Events

The BBP has support for the following events. We plan to run the ones in bold:

  • Alum Rock Mw 5.45
  • Chino Hills Mw 5.39
  • Hector Mine Mw 7.13
  • Landers Mw Mw 7.22*
  • Loma Prieta Mw 6.94
  • North Palm Springs Mw 6.12
  • Northridge Mw 6.73
  • Parkfield Mw 6.0
  • Ridgecrest A Mw 6.47
  • Ridgecrest B Mw 5.4
  • Ridgecrest C Mw 7.08*
  • San Simeon Mw 6.6*
  • Whittier Narrows Mw 5.89

Verification and Validation

Planned process will involve verification and validation stages.

  • Verification: Compare CyberShake broadband seismograms to Broadband Platform seismograms
  • Validation: Compare CyberShake broadband seismograms to observed seismograms

Verification Process

Validation Process

For each of the 5 BBP validation events listed above, go through the following process:

  • Run the BBP validation event with the Graves & Pitarka modules to produce BBP results for comparison.
  • Review the BBP validation data for the event, including station list and seismogram files and validation results from GP method for this event.
  • Identify about 10 stations from the BBP station list that have observed seismograms to run in CyberShake.
  • Modify station list low-pass filter to 50 Hz.
  • Use the Vs30 values from the BBP station list for both the low-frequency and high-frequency site response in CyberShake, for consistency.
  • We will use CVM-S4.26.M01 as the velocity model for CyberShake.
  • Run one realization using the SRF file which is generated by the BBP when run with one realization.
  • Create an ERF in the CyberShake database containing all the validation events, with a unique source and rupture ID for each one.
  • Save the SGTs in case we want to run additional realizations later.
  • To interface with the BBP tools for generating data products, convert the CyberShake seismograms into BBP format seismograms

Data Products

The CyberShake method calculates two component seismograms. Broadband platform supports three component seismograms. We will convert CyberShake 2 components to 3 components by duplicating the N/S component in the vertical component data.

We will produce the following data products to compare CyberShake results with BBP results:

  • ts_process plot, comparing traces and response spectra.
  • RotD50 comparison plots
  • Goodness-of-fit bias plots
  • Map of GoF, by station

Northridge

A KML of the Northridge stations is available here. Selected stations are in orange. The BBP station list file for these stations is available here.

We made the following modifications to the default BBP platform to support better comparison to the BB CS results:

  • Changed the BBP LF and HF seismogram length to 500 sec / 50,000 timesteps
  • Modified the filtering so the merge frequency is 1.0 Hz and phase=0

3D comparisons

Below are comparisons using the CVM-S4.26.M01 model in CyberShake.

BBP LA Basin 1D comparisons

Below are comparisons using the BBP 1D LA Basin model in CyberShake with no interpolation. We also:

  • Modified the CyberShake filtering scheme to match the BBP filtering scheme, which uses a high-pass filter for the HF at around 0.89 Hz and a low-pass filter for the LF at about 1.11 Hz.
  • Modified the CyberShake low-frequency site response to use the high-frequency PGA values, consistent with the BBP approach.

We ran SCE with both the original 1D model, and a modified version (File:Modified nr02-vs500.txt)

Forward/Reverse Tests

To narrow down potential issues further, we performed a series of forward/reverse tests. In these, we place a force at one location and observe the velocities at another, then place a force at the 2nd location and observe the velocities at the first. As long as the correct components are being compared, the resulting seismograms should be very similar.

Results from Rob's 4th-order code (14-layer model), using the points at 5 km and the surface, and 15 km depth and the surface.

Rob repeated the experiment with 2nd-order operators and got agreement to floating-point error.

Using the AWP-CS code, we got the following results. We averaged the Z=1 and Z=2 layers to correctly get the free surface velocities. For some reason, one of the seismograms needs to be inverted in order to match correctly.

Velocity source insertion

We determined that the offset is due to the way the AWP staggered grid is set up. The normal stresses are in the center of the grid cell, but the X velocity is in the center of the side, in the +x direction. So inserting a source at location A and recording velocities at location B is actually recording velocities at B+.5, and doing the reverse tests means velocities are measured at A+.5. So in the first test, the distance traveled is (B+.5)-A = (B-A)+.5, and in the second it's B-(A+.5) = (B-A)-.5, a difference of 1 grid point. If the force is inserted by modifying velocities,

To illustrate this, the plots below show the same test with a stress insertion and a velocity insertion. Both points have the same Y and Z indices (depth=1km), only the X is varied.

Velocity insertion

Here's a plot of the relative differences:

We also tried increasing Q to 1e10:

Since the above results looked good, we tried moving one of the points to the surface:

The differences in the late arrivals are ~3%.

We repeated these velocity insertion tests for the 4, 12, and 14-layer models, with one point at the surface and one point at depth.

Kim made some updates to the symmetries in the kernel. I reran the 14-layer tests with the new kernel.

We recomputed results using 100m and 33m spacing, and compared them to the FK results for the 14-layer model. We chose the AWP points (432, 365, 1) and (317, 453, 52) in the 100m run and (1294, 1093, 1) and (948, 1362, 154) in the 33m run.

BBP Comparisons

For these comparisons, we used the 14-layer model in the BBP, and a 24-layer pre-processed version of this model better for finite difference codes.

GoF for multiple realizations

For clarity, here are the steps involved in producing the below plots.

  1. Generate the 10 realizations by using a random number generator to generate 9 numbers, and create copies of the src file which is used in the BBP validation event, changing only the seed.
  2. Produce BBP results for each of the 10 sites x 10 realizations. Note that all must be run individually so reproducibility with the random seed isn't an issue.
    1. Run the BBP workflow generator for 1 site and 1 realization to generate an XML file. This workflow includes SRF generation and site response.
    2. Using the XML file, replace the path to the station name and the path to the src file.
    3. Create batch submission scripts which call all 100 BBP workflows.
  3. Create validation events for each realization.
    1. Copy over the Northridge validation event data that ships with the BBP.
    2. Update the data. This includes changing the event name, updating the src file, updating the stl file to filter at the correct frequencies, and stage in the output acceleration data from the BBP runs for the validation event to use as an 'observation'.
  4. Produce CyberShake results for each of the 10 sites.
    1. Create a new source in the ERF, in which each realization is a separate rupture of that source.
    2. Extract the rupture geometry from one of the realizations, to obtain the list of points the SGTs should be saved for.
    3. Generate a CyberShake volume oriented N/S/E/W which contains the Northridge rupture surface, the site of interest, is 64 km deep, and uses 30 km of padding.
    4. Generate a velocity mesh using the 24-layer model provided by Rob, which is a post-processed version of the LA Basin 14-layer model included with the BBP.
    5. Run the original version of the AWP code ('AWP-CS'), using velocity insertion of a source low-pass filtered at 2 Hz, for 30 seconds (unless it's a distance site, in which case we run longer)
    6. Run the post-processing code for the 10 realizations.
    7. Run the broadband steps (high-frequency synthesis, low-frequency site response, and merge) for each of the 10 realizations.
  5. Perform goodness-of-fit, using CyberShake as the simulation and BBP as the reference.
    1. For each realization:
      1. Create a temporary directory for the CyberShake results.
      2. Stage in the CyberShake results for all 10 sites
      3. Use BBP helper scripts to create a simulation ID and stage the CyberShake results to that directory.
      4. Run the BBP to generate an XML file which will perform GoF (details at New_BBP_Validation_Package)
      5. Run using the XML file to generate the GoF comparisons and plots.

33m tests

We modified the grid spacing from 100m to 33.333m to see what impact it has on the BBP/CS comparisons. To simplify the comparisons, results here are for 1 Northridge realization, realization 6.

Expanded buffer layer tests

When calculating the size of the CyberShake volume, we construct a volume large enough to contain the site and all the fault surfaces, then pad it on all sides by 30 km. We modified the buffer zone to be larger, 50 km.

We then performed additional tests, deepening the volume to 80 km, increasing the padding to 60 km, and also increasing the number of grid points in the boundary condition sponge zone from 50 to 80. Below are comparisons with the original results, including GoF for site SBG.

All plots are for Northridge realization 6.

We tried SBG for both 100m and 33m, saving the SGTs at the same dt as the BBP (0.1s).

Northridge, 38 stations

We ran CyberShake and the BBP for 10 realizations for the 38 distinct stations listed here. Note that 2006-PAC and 2007-PUL are colocated, so we only ran one. Below are goodness-of-fit and scatterplot GOF results.
